Thats basically what Passive Wi-Fi delivers.
We can get Wi-Fi for 10,000 times less power than the best thing thats out there.
All the networking, heavy-lifting and power-consuming pieces are done by the one plugged-in gadget.
The team basically decoupled the digital and analog operations involved in radio transmissions to achieve such low-power Wi-Fi transmissions.
It could also simplify our data-intensive worlds.
The journal MIT Technology Review has named the technology as one of the 10 breakthrough technologies of 2016.
The research was funded by the National Science Foundation, the University of Washington and Qualcomm.
